Today has been a good day starting off with the fantastic news Flynn will start nursery in January at the local school. This is going to be great for him but I'm realising he is growing up too quickly!

John then went off to the Sailing Club to look at a boat he was thinking of buying - he didn't in the end, it was a great price but needed a lot of work. He doesn't need it till spring and we have a slightly bigger budget so we are still on the look out.

Whilst John was there me and the boys went for breakfast at our local Wetherspoons.

It was then shopping time. Hobbycraft for some card and ribbon for Christmas gifts and a few other things fell into the basket! Then for this weeks food shop. We then nipped to my Grandma and Grandad's but they weren't in.

The rest of the day has been spent chilling and getting ready for tonight. A lovely evening with Carla, Sally and Debs.

Today I have taken Flynn for his orthoptics appointment at the local hospital. He has been been having regular check ups because of family history of squints etc.

Flynn did great today and named all the different sized pictures shown to him. He then had to have drops in to dilate his pupils - this test showed he is long sighted but not unusual for his age. The person doing this test was clearly not familiar with what a 3 year old would/wouldn't understand!

He has finally been discharged after over 2 years and we can now just have regular checks at the local opticians.

In a few weeks I will be back here with Ethan at the Ear, Nose and Throat department!
